| Sumario: | This article intends to examine the political activity of evangelical pastors in the Conurbano Bonaerense. The analysis focuses on the motivations, performances and strategies of these actors, as well as its modalities for accumulation of political capital.

The territorial domain of the protestant church leaders is set as its main source of access to the political arena and the competition for public office. These forms of intervention of the religious in public space are evidence of the dialectical relationship established between the restructuring processes of the religious field in Argentina and key elements of the national political culture. |
